I've been putting off this project for quite some time because I'm not strong enough to lift the size of concrete bowl/birdbath I'd like to make but after watching you, it dawned on me, "I have a cherry-picker!" and now I know what to do. Thank you so much!
@@donnabosken6396 Thank you for watching Donna. I made the template using plexiglass I had in the shop. I just cut out the shape I preferred. The diameter of the outside of the bowl is 26". It's 6" deep. the plexiglass template is attached to the metal pivoting arm. I'll show the complete tool in future episodes.
Thanks for this. Would love to see a part 2 on how you finish the project. Do you put it on a pedestal? Is there a fountain/punch attachment in the middle?
Hi. Does your template swivel have ball bearings, if so where did you find it. Also, do you have information on how to keep your sand from collapsing with taller pots. Thanks.
Hi Barbara Thank you for watching. Yes there are ball bearings in the shaft. My husband is a machinist, he made the shaft. I will be filming an episode asap on how the swivel arm is made. I use play sand. It can be purchased at most home reno stores. It takes practice to find the right amount of water so it sticks but not runny. Kindly

Is there some way I can get a copy of the template? How wide in diameter and depth is the center hole? How do you attach the templete to the PVC?

Hi Barbara
Thank you for watching.
Yes there are ball bearings in the shaft. My husband is a machinist, he made the shaft. I will be filming an episode asap on how the swivel arm is made.
I use play sand. It can be purchased at most home reno stores. It takes practice to find the right amount of water so it sticks but not runny.

Your husband did a great job with the template setup and making it to where the bowl will suspend from the chain.
@@donnabosken6396 Thank you Donna. I'm making the bowls outside in my back garden. Now my husband and brother inlaw help lift it off the table.
Did you make the video showing how you made the arm/ table? Thx
what are the measuremnets of the bowl?
This is amazing! Where can I get a copy of your template? How many hours to cure?
Thank you Donna. I let the bowl sit on the table for 48 hours before lifting it off.
I was about comment for same thing is there any measurements and all too make template
how much cement/sand total was used was this like 2 bags of ceoncrete 1.5 with sand?
the concrete recipe is 2 parts sand to 1 part cement. Thank you for watching.
@@dameonthemove9596 i was asking for that size did you use a full bag of Portland cement or 2 bags?
@@mnorman1572 not quite one bag of Portland cement.
Do you sell the template, for those of us that do not have a husband that is a machinist?
Not at this time Valerie. But I was thinking about manufacturing the pivoting arm. I'll keep you posted. thank you for watching my channel.
You could use a round basin and cover it with sand
@@susanhogan1350 great idea!!
@@susanhogan1350 yes
Your bowl has a hole…
Yes it does. In my upcoming episode I show how I make an overflow pipe.
Nice but way too much work , easier ways to make a bowl
Thank you for watching. I’m an artist and love being hands on.
So do you have a video on your channel?
